The Reaper

Описание: Verse 1]
Thunder rolls like a warning
As the gates swing open wide
Spent a couple years in iron
With a fire burnin’ inside
I walked out with nothin’
But a name they carved in stone
Found her grave out on the hillside
And I swore they’d all atone

[Pre-Chorus]
Kneeled down by the flowers,
Whiskey tears on shattered ground
Said “Darlin’, I ain’t an angel…
But I’ll hunt ’em all down.”

[Chorus]
They used to call me The Reaper,
Now they’ll learn what that means
I ain’t comin’ for glory
I ain’t searchin’ for peace
My brothers turned to traitors,
Broke the only heart I had
Now I’m ridin’ through the shadows
Bringing justice to the damned

[Verse 2]
First one fell in the moonlight
Didn’t even hear my boots
He used to laugh beside me
Now he’s buried with the truth
Second tried runnin’
But you can’t escape your sins
I held him while he trembled
Said “You should’ve died as my friend.”

[Pre-Chorus]
Every mile cuts me deeper,
Every soul a piece of me
But I ain’t stoppin’ this blood trail
Not till my angel’s free

[Chorus]
They used to call me The Reaper,
Now they’ll learn what that means
I ain’t comin’ for mercy
I ain’t fallin’ to my knees
My brothers turned to traitors,
Left her lyin’ cold and slain
So I’m ridin’ through the darkness
With a saddle full of pain

[Bridge]
Firelight on leather
Gun smoke on the wind
I keep hearin’ her whisper,
“This ain’t how it had to end…”
But the devil knows my shadow
And he rides beside my steel
I ain’t lookin’ for forgiveness—
Some wounds never heal

[Verse 3]
Last one stood on the crossroads
With the patch upon his vest
Said “Brother, we were family…”
But he put her in the ground with the rest
I raised my gun with trembling hands
While tears blurred out the sky
Said “You should’ve kept her breathing…
Now it’s your turn to die.”

[Final Chorus]
They used to call me The Reaper,
Now they whisper it in fear
I didn’t choose this fury
But I made my promise clear
My brothers turned to traitors
And I laid them all to rest
Now I’m ridin’ with the sunrise
Headin’ lonely toward the west

[Outro]
No angels sing above me
No devils drag me down
Just a ghost upon a Harley
Leavin’ footprints outta town
With the wind behind my sorrow
And a heart too numb to beat
I fade into the sunset—
Where the broken riders meet
